XAMPP 7.0.9 MariaDB question
Posted: 28. October 2016 11:00
Hi,
This is my first encounter with MariaDB and one thing is freaking me out.
I have installed XAMPP 7.0.9 that comes with MariaDB on my Elementay OS Loki. However, the when I start the service from CLI and/or use GUI manager and/or use phpMyAdmin all I can see that I'm running MySQL service. In fact the only place mentioning MariaDB is "What's included?" popup link on XAMPP download page.
I understand that MariaDB is drop-in replacement for MySQL but WTF? How can one see if he's having MariaDB or MySQL installed?
Thank you for the help.
Cheers.
